The following pages act as a guide in the transition process from afternoon to night with thought given to the evening, in between. The following pages are also a collection of situations, dialogue, and thoughts, with some attitude added here and there. Not a coffee table book or bathroom read but instead meant for reference, present and future. Perhaps even a convenient guide during a period of difficulty or indecisiveness.
